    Summary of Application Experience

    This is a very unpredictable and inefficient process. The vast majority of schools I applied to did not respond to me for months, and some schools have not responded to me for over six months now. I feel very lucky to be going to Pitt next year. My advice: Throw your sense of entitlement out the door, no matter how strong your application is. Things will work out, albeit in unexpected ways.
